Directions
Sterile powder can be used directly for the evaluation of sterility in manufacturing process. For sterile liquid medium aseptically add 30.10 grams in 1000 ml sterile distilled / purified water. DO NOT AUTOCLAVE Dispense aseptically in sterile tubes or flasks as desired.
Note: If any fibres are observed in the solution it is recommended to filter the solution through 022 micron filter to eliminate any possibility of presence of fibres.
Principle And Interpretation
Soyabean Casein Digest Medium is recommended by various pharmacopoeia as sterility testing medium (1,2,3,4,5). This medium is prepared by completely replacing animal and vegetable based peptone with chemically defined peptones. HiCynth™ peptone No.1 and HiCynth™ peptone No. 5 in the medium provides nitrogeneous and carbonaceous compounds, long chain amino acids, vitamins and other essential nutrients . Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic balance. Phosphate buffers the medium. Dextrose serves as an energy source. In this line the HiFill™ Test Medium with the addition of MFT indicator, helps to verify the microbiological growth in aseptic production process. MFT Indicator is the medium is utilized by all microorganisms and the microbial contamination is indicated by colour change from light yellow to maroon-red. It is an easier method for detection of contamination with no time consumption.
